    My tribute to a great man, a great drummer, and a great friend. I will miss you Alan White! You sound fantastic on this! Thank you.

    I originally wrote this song to cope with the loss of a dear friend of mine, Billy Baker.
    I had the privilege of having the legendary Alan White ( YES, * John Lennon, *George Harrison) record the drums.
    Alan White is a man I also call a friend and now mourn the loss of deeply as he passed on about two weeks ago.

    I am releasing this song on what would have been Alan's 73rd birthday.
    My heart goes out to the family and loved ones of our dearly departed.

    I present to you "Time Won't Wait"

    Play it so loud it reaches into the heavens and may it give you comfort in your life when you are facing loss, be that today or sometime down the road. We all regrettably and inevitably lose so much as time goes by and there will never be enough time. So live today, because tomorrow is not promised. Time Wont Wait. -PH In loving memory for my friends
    Alan White and Billy Baker.

Time Won't Wait

Words and Music by Pete Hopkins

I'm lying in bed
All these thoughts running through my head
I'm sure you know what I mean

Here in this life
In all of our lives
We could all use a little more time
It's never enough
And it keeps going on this way and


Time won't wait for anyone any day
Time throws fate ever-on come what may
Come what may

Not long ago I lost a friend
who battled it out with a bottle
And the bottle it won in the end
All I could say when I got the call
Was how that I wish we'd had a little more time
It's never enough and now he's so far away and

Time won't wait for anyone any day
Time throws fate ever-on come what may

Time won't wait for anyone any day
Time throws fate ever-on come what may
Come what may

Give me more time
If only for one day
if only for one day
